For writing, we've been learning about descriptive writing! I enjoy descriptive writing because we get to describe and pick up all these ideas.
So for writing, we had a task to be in pairs and write about a character. I was buddied up with Kylie (Her blog will be on our St. Bernadette's Room 5 class blog). We both agreed to do princess Jasmine. We started planning on a burger template. We had 3 topics, her personality, her looks and her problems in life. Our teacher added a word bank (A word bank is where you come up with heaps of describing words, or it can be 10 describing words), she added a word bank to everyone's burger template brain-stormer. We added up to at least 10 describing words in it.
Once we got all our ideas together. We started writing. We highlighted the detailed bits that were synonyms etc. did our introduction of Princess Jasmine, the 3 paragraphs about here and last, the conclusion.
Here is my writing!
She has a creative personality. She is a caring person to everyone she loves and to people she might not even know. She’s such an adventurous person, and she is very proud even though she might mess up on something. She is so confident in everything she does and she doesn’t let anything get in her way. She encourages other people to stand up for themselves and do what is right to protect their land and family! If Princess Jasmine was not alive then her land would probably explode!
Princess Jasmine is a wonderful person with wonderful brown eyes and her brown eyes make her unique. She has beautiful black hair. She wears a shiny gorgeous blue and gold necklace with a special heart on her necklace.
Sometimes Princess Jasmine can have some problems in her life even though it looks like she can handle everything. She has a problem that her Dad wont let her rule Agrabah. She can only rule Agrabah if she marries someone. Another one of her problems is a bad one. She had to kiss a man called Jafar like Mwah! To distract him from trying to hurt Aladdin. She really does anything to protect someone or something. Princess Jasmine is a very brave and confident person because she never gives up and she always does her best. She loves to adventure, because she always likes to do stuff to help out even though it’s hard for her. Jasmine is very outgoing and fearless because she never is scared of anything and she’s always hyped and happy to do something. She would do anything to save her Family and Agrabah. The victory for her is in the bag!
